Following on from Chelsea's dramatic Champions League quarter final defeat to Real Madrid earlier this month, Los Blancos played out another dramatic Champions League tie on Tuesday night , this time against Manchester City.
City took an early two goal lead before being pegged back by Karim Benzema before half-time. The two sides continued to trade blows in the second-half before settling their first leg tie with a 4-3 final score.
One interested spectator will have been Monaco's Aurélien Tchouaméni, who has been linked with a host of English clubs in recent months, including Chelsea. He reacted to the match on twitter with a cryptic tweet alluding to the quality of football on display at the Etihad on Tuesday night.
